I have a to-do item in my timelog file that says to write down about various hinted-at dreams and other things that I've documented on facebook and OkC but not in here. So here goes.

Snowball

Towards the end of this dream my family and I, along with a group of other people, were camped out on a string of school busses at the bottom of some big, snowy hills. There was some rapid glacier action going on. Like, sheets of ice movig really fast, and snowballs flying around. I was watching this in amazement from a bus window. Then a giant snowball came hurtling straight towards me. It was coming so fast that I knew I wouldn't be able to get out of the way (being on a crowded bus) and just stood there and waited for it to hit me, knowing I'd be squished and dead.

Rather than experiencing non-existence, I then found myself still alive on a slightly different place the bus with no giant snowball in sight.

Airport toilet

I was going to catch a plane to somewhere (boy, I have a lot of dreams like that). I had to pee. I found a bathroom. There were 3 toilets. I sat on one to pee. There wasn't anywhere to set my backpack down so I set it down inside the toilet, where it got all soggy.

The one I had last night

I've no idea what that was about.

Date with Renee's friend's friend

What it sounds like. I was worried that we might run into Renee at some point.

Also write about stuff that you've been noting on fb/okc

Okay, so here's other stuff (not dreams) that's happened in the past few weeks:

• I dug up the last of my potatoes.
• I dug up a carrot. It was very itty bitty. I fugure they needed looser soil, more Miracle-Gro, or both.
• Made pizza dough twice. The fist batch had problems but tasted okay anyway. The second batch I used more flour. It rose while I slept. I need to break it into smaller balls and store them somehow.
• Fixed my dryer. The old belt had broken so the barrel didn't spin. I ordered a new one last week, and it arrived sometime around yesterday. Putting it on was tricky because I assumed the belt was supposed to go along the groove in the barrel, but when I put it on that way there was too much slack and the didn't hold the idler pulley in the right place and the belt rubbed up things in ways that it obviously shouldn't, since running it that way made my dryer squeak. The only way I could tell what was rubbing was by taking a picture from behind the motor with my camera. Those how-to videos make it look way easier than it is if your fingers don't already know their way around inside the machine. I have a Maytag, in case you want to look for pictures to see what I'm talking about.
• Scored a couple of old (but working, as far as I can tell) Canon point+shoot cameras from the Waltons when I went over to take a look at the dryer exhaust piping. I also gave them carrot cupcakes.
• Restructured PicGrid so that pages include information on which layout algorithm got used. It's a step forward, I guess.
• As of today there is still almost 2 layers of carrot cupcakes in the box in the fridge.
• I went on bike rides with outing club people the past 2 weekends. There were lots of hot girls on both trips.
• I'm going IAT-MSCing this weekend. I volunteered to drive; Connie's figuring out who actually will. I should buy beer. And other groceries.
• At last night's Outing Club meeting I signed up for Fall Colors.
• Simon and I plan to go to Cedar Point on the 28th-30th.
• YC might change her plans to come visit to Thanksgiving instead of the 2nd week of October.
• Cleaned a bunch of large files off my website. Those requests should get redirected to Robert or TOGoS-Ubn.
• I want to write a new D4/5-like game. With routers. And big guns.
